How are we on the last day of the year already? I mean, how are we in 2024 already? Time is literally flying. Racing! It's the end of times! Haha, not a somber blog post. But true though. Right now, before the year ends, I just want to say thanks. Thank You, to our loving … Continue reading Good Bye 2024 & an Embracing Welcome 2025
Pruning Season
"Pruning". It's been some intense days, weeks and months. Heck, years. I believe I wrote about this already, haha. But oh my goodness, every time I believe God is done, He keeps revealing another plot to the story. To My story. His story for me. The one He carefully wrote for me. My God is … Continue reading Pruning Season

Wisdom & Understanding
James 1:5 -- “Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him.” Did you know that when we lack wisdom and understanding, we’d only have to ask for it? Sounds simple, right? And the asking part is … Continue reading Wisdom & Understanding
No Excuses
Apparently I have a habit or new way of picking the word(s) of the year a couple months before entering it. And at first, I figured that was happening again, but scratch that! Why wait 4 months, if I can start now. No Excuses, right? I declare this the season of No Excuses. And it … Continue reading No Excuses
Light One Another
In Numbers 11:16 we read that after the people complained and Moses also got displeased, that the Lord answered by calling Moses to gather seventy men of the elders of Israel. Israel was in the midst of their journey through the wilderness on their way to the promised land. Their selective memory remembered the foods … Continue reading Light One Another
The Manta Dream of Serenity
Today one month ago I wrote a piece called To Sacrifice The Gift of God. I believe the title is pretty clear about what it is about, but please do read to understand today's blogpost a bit better. The definition of Serenity according to Google's Dictionary is the state of being calm, peaceful, and untroubled. It's … Continue reading The Manta Dream of Serenity
Being Continued
Not to be, but Being continued. As you may have noticed the last months of 2023 weren't as regular in posting blogposts as the months beforehand. And that's okay. During that time I didn't stop writing though, which was most important to me. Posting to the world outside my window may take a break, but … Continue reading Being Continued
Blooming Blossoms
Making my way downtown, driving fast, blossoms pass and I'm Christ bound. Teeny-neeneeny-neeny... That is Not how I originally intended to start this blogpost, but once it started I just had to finish it. Not sorry. It's still a very catchy song and even a catchier scene. I mean, I'm pretty sure that if you … Continue reading Blooming Blossoms
It’s a New Season
Last year I made a great start and finished at peace. Somewhere in the middle though, I went through some challenging months where later I felt it was time I had lost. A period where I was distracted. But I learned once again that God’s timing is not my timing. What I believe I “lost” … Continue reading It’s a New Season
